Colts-Redskins Postgame Thread

After 50 years the sellout streak is over. (https://www.richmond.com/sports/redskins/redskins-observations-sellout-streak-ends-after-years-not-that-there/article_aa62b158-b9e5-11e8-8703-bb8647888651.html) TBH I'm surprised it took this long. If you can't fill the stadium on your home opener a week after a dominating win, it obviously speaks to the long-term decline of the team.


Credit to u/TheFart_ of Reddit for this shot. Embarrassing, but par for the course when you lead the league in highest average cost (https://www.cbsnews.com/media/5-least-and-most-expensive-stadiums-to-watch-an-nfl-game/11/) of attending a game.

Good, I hope it continues as the season progresses if they continue to lose. When Detroit fans weren't going to give up their hard earned $$$$$$$ for crap football, the ownership responded. Billy got dethroned and Mama Ford took over. Things are only a bit better, but at least it showed that fans can get the owners to at least attempt to bring a winner in Detroit. Not too sure what Skins fans were thinking by awarding Dan for bringing them crappy football all of these years. Only real contender he had, was the '99 team that he inherited from Cook. It is good that the fans know they have options for good football via NCAA football. The Hokies look strong.

Teams just have absolutely no fear about having to play us at home. Every team knows that they can 100% win the game and the home crowd won't bother them at all.

I'm running out of steam w/ the Redskins.

Hearing a lot of calls on twitter and what not for Jay to be fired. That's always the knee jerk reaction after a bad loss, but i think the cries will be louder if we have a losing season. This is only one bad loss, but i am concerned about down the road. Most have pointed out that we have absolutely no advantage at home.

Fire. Gruden. Now.

That stadium should have been packed today and it wasn't.

I don't think this completely justifies it, but people in the DMV area acted like Florence was going to slam this area.

Defense played well but they put us behind the 8-ball to start the game then when we needed a stop the most after getting within 14-9 we let them go right down the field for another score.

On offense, too many cutsie plays and bad offensive line play.

In all 3 facets, we let a bad team come into our stadium and physically manhandle us for all 60 minutes. That's the saddest part.

Gruden and Manusky just don't instill any confidence in me. I assume we'll look like shit every week. Pleasantly surprised last week but right back to normal this week.

The Colts are not a bad team. They have played 1 bad quarter this year against what looks to be a pretty good Bengals team, otherwise they would be 2-0.

Terrible game really by the Skins, but no need to hit the panic button yet IMO.

Especially since everyone in the NFC East is going to be 1-1 after tonight.

Let me explain why I have fatigue with the team...it’s starts with the ownership and front office. The moves for/at QB and the handling of that position is gutless and pathetic. The fan base is constantly sold poor decisions at the qb position.

Watching 2 previous coordinators like mcvay and shanny jr come thru and leave the skins only to thrive elsewhere.

Never getting a solid defensive coordinator since Greg Williams.
